A reminder this year association rules have changed
All teams who play home and away games ( not in house U5-7s miniroos) must have a ground official at all home and away games. Ground officials need to wear the vest thats in game bags.

Ground officials job is to look after:
Game leaders or referees
Oversee any injuries and for eg call an ambulance
Make sure your home team crowd are being responsible, standing back away from coaching areas to give room for coaches managers and players to sort the game
Make sure your team crowd are being respectful and behaving appropriately to the club & opposition team, players, referees.
